    Very disappointed that JMM chose to take this fight, even if it would be a good payday and he deserves one. I'd much rather he take on any of the other belt holders at 135, or even move up to 140, a move I've previously been critical of.

    Marquez's people want a Soto fight, but he might have a rematch with Antillon first. So they're looking to max out JMM's money prior to that.

    This fight and its lack of 'reaction' proves we're maybe too hard on our British boxers. I mean, if Khan announced he was fighting Erik, there would be an outrage, I'd be repulsed by the idea.

    Marquez fighting him, hasn't really got me up or down, still dont agree with the fight mind you.

    I know someone working for GBP liaising with Marquez's team. They definitely want Soto - and since it's not their golden goose, I think Top Rank would be willing to do it.
